MOREIRA, Fernanda Barros. The transference in analytical relationship: a return to Freud and Ferenczi. Semin., Ciênc. Soc. Hum. [online]. 2018, vol.39, n.1, pp. 85-94. ISSN 1679-0383.

The aim of this article was to study the transference phenomenon in the analytic relationship, highlighting its importance as a possibility of transformation, based on the texts of Freud and Ferenczi. The transference allows the patient to update unconscious affects, and when the resistance is overcome, a possibility of profound changes appears. According to Freud, in the transference process, the repressed material can become conscious, as long as the resistances are broken. For Ferenczi, the analyst must measure the tension and displeasure of the analytic process according to the structure of the patient’s ego, giving the patient the necessary time to overcome his resistances. Both the authors highlight the difficulty of the transference management in the analytical process and the importance of the psychoanalyst’s personal analysis. From his own analysis, the analyst can occupy the role of the mirror, essential in the analysis process.
